Formula One has signed a long-term extension agreement with the Automobile Club of Monaco (ACM), which will see the Monaco Grand Prix remain on its calendar until 2031.
The deal also sees the ACM align with Formula One’s sustainability goals; from the 2026 season onward, the Monaco race will be held on the first full weekend in June every year.
The 2025 Monaco Grand Prix is scheduled to take place between May 23 and 25, 2025, and will mark the 75th anniversary since its debut.
Monaco has been on the Formula One World Championship calendar since the first championship season in 1950 and has currently been a constant on the calendar since 1955.

Stefano Domenicali, President and CEO of Formula One, commented:
“I’m delighted that Formula 1 will continue to race in Monaco until 2031. The streets of Monte Carlo are unique and a famous part of Formula 1, and the Monaco Grand Prix remains a race that all drivers dream of winning. I would like to extend a special thanks to H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco, Michel Boeri, President of the Automobile Club of Monaco and everyone involved in the extension of this important partnership. This agreement signals a new era of partnership and innovation between Formula 1 and Monaco. It is the future focused leadership of H.S.H.

Michel Boeri, President of the Automobile Club of Monaco, added:
“I would particularly like to thank H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco, Stefano Domenicali, and everyone involved in the extension of this contract.
